Chubar and Rakovsky

Today,on a report concerning the transportation of
foodstuffs from the Ukraine, the C.L.D. decided that considering
that you have undertaken to load the grain for the centre
with your own means, and considering that it has reached
hardly a quarter of the established rate, we shall be forced
to appoint our own representative to the Ukraine, unless
there is a radical improvement in this matter within the
next three days. The C.L.D. requests an immediate reply
to this C.L.D.
telegram.[1]

LeninChairman, C.L.D.
